Asia Cup 2025: Will the India vs Pakistan match be cancelled in Asia Cup?
There is a lot of speculation about the first India-Pakistan match after Operation Sindoor. These two teams are scheduled to play against each other on September 14 in the Asia Cup 2025, which will be held at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Most Indian fans want the Indian team not to play against Pakistan in the Asia Cup. Let us tell you that Team India does not play bilateral series with Pakistan, both teams clash only in ICC or Asia Cup tournaments. Meanwhile, a statement from a UAE official has come regarding this match.
A few days ago, the Indian champions team led by Yuvraj Singh refused to play with Pakistan in the World Championship of Legends. India's decision remained firm even in the league stage and then in big matches like the semi-finals, the result was that Pakistan got a place in the final without playing. Indian fans were divided into two groups over this. Most people were in support of this decision, while many fans also believed that India should have played with Pakistan and defeated them.
The biggest match in the Asia Cup starting on September 9 is India vs Pakistan, which is to be held in Dubai on September 14. Both teams are in the same group. Most Indian fans are demanding that Team India should not play with Pakistan in this tournament as well. By the way, let us tell you that it is not just about the group stage, India can enter the Super 4 even by not playing in it, but if the decision remains the same in the Super 4, then Team India may suffer losses. If India and Pakistan reach the final, then there will be a clash between these two 3 times within a month.
What did the UAE board official say?
Subhan Ahmed, Chief Operating Officer of Emirates Cricket Board, while talking to 'The National' said, 'We cannot give any guarantee of this, but it is not right to compare the Asia Cup with a private event like the World Championship of Legends. Government permission is taken before taking the decision to play in the Asia Cup. This has definitely been done before the countries announce the schedule. So hopefully we will not be in a situation like WCL.'
8 teams playing in Asia Cup
Group A- India, Oman, Pakistan, UAE.
Group B- Afghanistan, Hong Kong, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka.
According to the format of Asia Cup, 8 teams have been divided into 2 groups. Each team will play 3 matches in the group stage, the top 2 teams will enter the Super 4 and the remaining 2 teams will be eliminated. Then the top 2 teams of Super 4 will play the final on 28 September.
